Next manager?

[purpletrousers]

Moyes has not been contacted.

It's not Moyes. Thank God.

He’s odds on now

Just heard from my son who has a source who works at Villa and he says it’s definitely going to be Moyes

Glad we've cleared that one up then!

[footyskillz]

I'm going to stick a reaonable amount on Henry at Corals.  See if it affects the odds at all.

Was 5/1, now 5/2!

To sum up then, don't get your knickers in a twist about bookies' odds.

Now, it had better bloody well be Thierry Henry!

I'm going to get odds from Barry from EastEnders to take over .

He knows how to get them playing after his puss in boots  panto.

I don't like the sound of MacDonald saying the manager should be watching on Saturday. That seems to suggest it's an out of work chancer like Henry or Moyes.

Or MacDonald could just be making it up.

What is an appropriate vegetable to chuck at Moyes at his unveiling?

I was thinking something exotic like pak-choii to send a message to the mananagement that we ain’t messing about.

Moyes would be a solid but unspectacular appointment. His football is similar to that of Bruce and that’s why I wouldn’t be jumping for joy at this appointment. That said, he has something to prove. I just hope it’s not with us.

Are we allowed to start a Moyles out! thread on the day he's appointed? No fucking way i'm waiting and seeing this time. Wasted 3 seasons that way with Nan's hair

Yeah Chris Moyles out !! 

[robleflaneur]

See the number voting  here for Moyes has doubled pretty quickly.

[Lastfootstamper]

Ralph Hassenhüttl. Has to be.

Ive seen this name floated about. Is he any good?

I'll reread it, as much as it pains me to click on that drivel, but I don't believe he's actually quoted as saying that.

He didn't do that bad at West Ham but can understand why anyone would find it an incredibly boring appointment.

Well it would be a lazy and predictable appointment, and shows we'd have dinosaurs running the club as well as the team

I would be monumentally underwhelmed if it was Moyes.

His record at West Ham :
West Ham United   7 November 2017   13 May 2018   31   9   10   12   29.03

Thats goals / won / drawn / lost / win%

He did okay there but thats the decision west ham made. Keep a guy who may keep you mid-table for 5 years, or try and push on with someone else a bit more progressive. Jury's out at the moment i guess. To me anyway, Moyes carries the scent of failure, probably from seeing his glum mug every 5 minutes after Man U took another beating
